Controlling the uncontrollable..

"I didn't come this far to take a NO", is what most people think. Nobody does, do they ? Such thinking is what brings them the determination that they themselves have never seen. Most of the time the fundamental problem with human being is the rejection itself rather than who rejects. The ego, even though some say they don't give a shit, does in deed play you. It is so cunning that it makes you end up fighting a battle that doesn't even exist or lost already.

The situation is more difficult to handle if the person is so much used to receiving nothing but YES all the time. Such people, over a period of time, gifted with cat's eyes. They think that gift is an award while it is in fact a curse. The problem with cat, as they say, is that it thinks the world is dark when it closes it's eyes. The fact is difficult to be explained to cat since the fact actually sits on the illusion. It can only be realized by the cat if it chooses to look at the world beyond it's closed eyelids.

Doctor, a real doctor, says, "don't try to control the uncontrollable". It is important to understand what is controllable and what is uncontrollable. Trying to control the uncontrollable is like chasing your own shadow to hug closer. At the most, you will finally end up putting the lights out and place yourself into darkness.

So you see, you can't say that you didn't walk that far to take a NO. Walking a farther distance is your choice and in control of you. However, what is being granted is not in your control. The sooner you realize, the sooner you can take different path(s) as needed.
